The bug exists of a branch to the next address, Lattice ASM never warned me for. It falls to a long branch to an odd address causing guru #3. It is unlikely to happen because the code is very rarely executed. The bug only existed if the salve function was activated. No other files are affected than those expected to be at the moment of the guru (open, unflushed).
